Tomatoes!

I went to my local farmers market yesterday and there were the most beautiful Tomatoes available. Not the ones that are grown in green houses, those looked nice too but the ones grown outside. Not perfect but beautiful.

Last night we had Tomato Sandwiches for supper! They were so good. Fresh white bread smeared with mayo, Hellmann’s , slices of tomato sprinkled with salt a& pepper, a slice of Havarti cheese & fresh spinach leaves instead of lettuce. This was just sooo good. And, sliced cucumbers with Caesar Salad dressing and Parmesan cheese.

Many people ask me "how did you do that?" "will you show me how?' So I decided to make a blog about what I cook and bake. I am in no way a professional cook, but I love to feed people and try new things as well as making the "old foods" My friends are wonderful cooks, each with their own 'specialty' and i will be having guest cooks here, showcasing their favourite things to cook as well!! I hope you enjoy this blog and maybe decide to make some of these foods yourself! I am always available to answer any questions you might have about anything you see here. Some of my recipes are unique to me but most are not. They are all recipes I have found in a variety of ways, some are old family recipes that date back decades and some are new ones!
